While Dr Mahathir can rant that the Jews control the world, your more open-minded conspiracy theorist might reasonably conclude that it's the Muslims who have an inside track with the world's media. Here's a classic example of the lengths the American press go to to avoid offending the sensibilities of its delicate readers. What word does not appear in this  New York Times headline about France's gang-rape epidemic?  " A Crime Of The Young Stalks France's Urban Wastelands. (Link) "  A crime of "the young"? Any "young" in particular? Well, if you burrow down deep in the piece, you'll find the word "Muslim" does appear once, but applied to the female victims not the male perpetrators. I prefer my own take on the subject from early September 2002 in The Face Of The Tiger . One point worth emphasizing is this: comparing my experiences in "les banlieus" and the Middle East, I would say the unassimilated Muslim immigrants of Europe are far more radical, far more violent, far more hostile to the west — a perverse tribute, in its own way, to the illusions of multiculturalism :
